Mrs. Holland’s Biology class is learning about the characteristics of populations. Students performed an investigation to determine the size of a population. They used a method known as mark-recapture to estimate the size of their bean population. A few groups got very close to the actual size of the population. This will help students understand factors that affect populations. #Collaboration #Communication #CriticalThinking

🚀🔬🎈 Our 6th-grade students are reaching new heights with their creativity and problem-solving skills! 💡🤝📚 Our 6th graders in Mrs. Myers's class recently embarked on an exciting journey using the engineering design process to create balloon rockets 🚀✨. Armed with only provided supplies, they were tasked with crafting rockets that could zip along a vertical track to help students learn about force and motion! 🎈🔝 Here's how this hands-on experience is shaping their education: 1️⃣ Force and Motion: Through trial and error, our students are grasping the principles of force and motion. They're witnessing firsthand how different variables affect their rocket's speed and direction! 📏⏱️ 2️⃣ Collaboration: Teamwork makes the dream work! 💪 Our young scientists are learning the value of working together, sharing ideas, and compromising to achieve their rocketry goals. 🙌🤝 3️⃣ Critical Thinking: Balloon rockets are all about precision and calculation. Our students are developing critical thinking skills as they analyze and adjust their designs for optimal performance. 🤔📊 4️⃣ Communication: Effective communication is key to any successful project. These budding engineers are honing their abilities to explain their ideas, ask questions, and offer feedback to improve their rockets. 🗣️📢 5️⃣ Creativity: The sky's the limit when it comes to creativity! 🌌 Our students are given the freedom to explore imaginative solutions, encouraging them to think outside the box! 🎨🌟 We're incredibly proud of our 6th graders as they combine science and engineering concepts with practical skills in this exciting project. 🌠👏 #RoarandSoar #4Cs #LearningByDoing

Firefighting students performed the skills of using a pike pole for pushing and pulling items like sheetrock on walls during the mop up phase of a fire. They also learned that in certain situations, they could use an axe to go through a wall to escape a hazardous area. Building construction parts and definitions were reviewed as they were revealed in the demolition. #TheDen #RealLife
